So apparently Dragon Kick spam Monk rotation is a thing and it's disgusting

[Atmaweapon510]

Nerf Dragon Kick potency by 20. Buff True Strike potency by 20. Buff Elixir Field potency by 40 if need be.

Wouldn't this encourage a Skillspeed breakpoint for a double-true rotation?

Wouldn't this [siphoning 20 potency from Dragon Kick to True Strike] encourage a Skillspeed breakpoint for a double-true rotation?

Slightly, but such would, imo, be for the best. Is a Monk that wants to actively avoid any and all additional speed really even a Monk?

Given how disadvantaged SkS is otherwise, having a useful threshold (that will likely also offer greater complexity and flexibility in Blitz usage down the line) would merely make the stat less costly, improving stat choice and, slightly, available job depth.

The main thing here, though, is that at present True Strike only even provides some 60-80 potency per minute, depending on SkS. The value of having it on one's bar at all amounts to about a single Chakra per minute. It's... rather pathetic.

I would like to see the devs play with the idea of making mnk a 1.5 gcd job. It already can reach that in DRS and it feels intense.

The issue there is that until the devs fix up the way the game handles animation locks, anyone with over 150 ms wouldn't be able to even single-weave without clipping. (In actuality, due to weirdly low poll rate for this game, problems could occur well before 150 ms. See MCH during Overheated, from Hypercharge.)
